Can we ship these dudes one-way to Russia since they love it so much
I saw an article a few weeks ago that said Russia is building a town for all the Christian’s nationalists. If you build it they will come?
There’s a little orange hand 🤚 up Mike’s ‘puppet hole’
They need something to run on, I think. Abortion is a losing issue that Trump doesn't care about, this and the border stuff are attempts to spin up issues they can run on besides culture war bromides.
Republicans are only allowed to support 1 (one) genocide at a time.
By funding Israel and not Ukraine, they get to support two. Technically three of you're counting the Uyghurs, but that feels like more of a bipartisan effort.
4 if you count Yemen, but that one's bipartisan too.
I'm mad that you're right. Fuck.
Yeah, i am too 😮💨
I think it's funny that House Republicans don't support a deal that gives them one thing they want in exchange for another thing that they also want. Apparently they believe that Democrats must be allowed to do literally nothing. (Would reverse psychology work on them? Maybe they'll vote for the bill if Biden says he opposes it.)
I didn't think I'd ever root for Mitch McConnell but now I hope he gets these yahoos under control.
